Official Class of 2020 Northeastern University Early Decion/Early Action Discussion

For my financial aid tab it says i have to send in my parents 2014 tax returns even though i sent in my css on time. Anyone else get this also? I got no mention of financial aid or scholarship due to these documents that need to be sent in?

Also, are you people getting the information about aid through the status check or at MyNEU? Because I have an error when I try to create myNEU account, also very frustrating.

deferred 31 ACT, 96.6 weighted GPA

deferred from CA
2170 SAT, 4.51 weighted GPA, about 3.86 unweighted
accounting major
Pretty upset ngl
but my SAT II’s were pretty garbage so

S accepted to Comp Sci with 2290 single score, 4.0 unweighted, strong ECs and leadership, job, top public high school, doesn’t rank. Didn’t get Honors but did get $18k/year merit aid.

WHY IS EVERYONE GETTING DEFERRED?

@premstudent I accessed all of my scholarship info through the application status check

Accepted into the college of social sciences and humanities for IR
35 on ACT and 4.124 unweighted GPA (school has weird scale)
small private school that doesnt rank
really strong extracurriculars and job
dean’s scholarship for 20k freshman year and 10k each additional semester

deferred from CA
2060 SAT, 3.6 unweighted GPA, 700 SAT II Lit
communication major
really good letters of rec from teachers/counselors, 10 activities w/ leadership positions
was expecting to be rejected so deferred ain’t so bad!

After watching this thread all day, the dividing line seems to be the SAT/ACT scores.

@Sparcky Agreed. Seems to be 2250+ or 34+ gets you in, anything under is shaky.

Deferred from WA
30 ACT, 3.54 GPA

Congratulations to everyone who has been accepted!
It seems everyone else has been deferred, but has there been any flat-out rejections?

Accepted!
GPA: 4.24 W/3.66 UW
ACT: 34 one sitting
Major: Graphic Design
5 AP courses
Leadership, good ECs, essays, and recs
Dean’s Scholarship
Cost of tuition’s still probably too high, but good luck to everyone else!

I’m pretty sure they base the initail award on 2014 income since the 2015 income estimated in the CSS profile is unverified. My S received a request a couple of weeks ago to send in 2014 returns. Assuming award will be adj

My D got accepted to Behavioral Neuroscience in the College of Science from TX
33 on ACT, 3.59 UWGPA, AP BIO(5), AP (5), English, SAT Bio 790

Deferred- International student. ACT 31, 3.65 UW, pretty good recs, IB Diploma

I was expecting admission. But oh well…

deferred but got in ED to my top choice so it’s really ok

Can someone please make a deferred students thread?

How crucial are 1st semester senior year grades when applying RD?
